The Amulet of the Black Skull is a wondrous item that requires attunement.
Description
This amulet is carved from obsidian and shaped like a screaming humanoid skull, with ruby eyes and emeralds for teeth. It hangs from an iron chain necklace.
Effects
The amulet has 6 charges and regains 1d6 charges daily at dawn. While wearing the amulet, you can use an action to expend 1 of its charges to transport yourself and anything you are wearing or carrying to a location within 100 feet of you. The destination you choose doesn't need to be in your line of sight, but it must be familiar to you (in other words, a place you have seen or visited), and it must be on the same plane of existence as you.
If you aren't undead, you must make a DC 16 Constitution saving throw each time you use the amulet to teleport. On a failed saving throw, the black skull cackles as you are transformed in transit. The transformation takes effect as soon as you arrive at the destination, and is determined randomly by rolling percentile dice and consulting the Black Skull Transformation table.

History
The amulet was originally in the possession of the necromancer Nettleberry, but was taken off of her corpse by the adventurer Caedali as she died. Removing the amulet from Nettleberry caused her body to turn to ash. The amulet was later given to Lambchop and he began to refer to it as his "Momulet", mourning the death of Nettleberry, for some twisted reason.
